KTVU KTVU Mornings On 2 At 7am March 20, 2017

Rain on the way, later. Good morning. A little mist ot skrouz skruz mountains. Santa cruise cruz. Nice weather until you washed your car, way to go. More clouds on the way. Very mild to warm then cloudy with rain developing by late this afternoon and tonight. The main time line is around 6 00 p. M. , more likely around 7 00 and 8 00. Overnight into early Tuesday Morning, throughout the morning youre okay but the cloud cover continues to stream up from the southwest giving us rain. For the morning, mostly a break here. Still waiting on this on the coast. If its not there yet on the coast, we have a ways to go. This will continue to move in and very mild conditions along with a southerly breeze is going to make a for a muggy tropical feel for some. Good breeze up to Santa Clara Valley. We need that to get closer. Thats tonight and tomorrow. And then it will usher in the cooler air and thats when well see the rain develop. Its on the north coast. Not much here yet. Upper 60s near 70s to the south. Has something new developed . Well, we are looking at slow traffic. Thats new because the last time i showed you the south bay, we hasnt filled in quite as much. This is 280 in san jose. Its not stop and go. More traffic coming through here. You can see the south bay commute, more slow traffic on 85 heading north. Not quite as filled in as it will get. Southbound 880 between hayward and fremont is slow and 680. Highway four continues to recover after an earlier crash at 242. Traffic is solid through bay point and here on 101. Its still slow from earlier problems. Lets go to highway 24 westbound. You can see this traffic in lafayette is slow and at the bay bridge toll plaza, a typical delay of 25 minutes. 7 03 back to the desk. Just minutes ago a highly anticipated hearing with fbi director james comey got underway on capitol hill. James comey will be questioned about alleged russian influence in the u. S. President ial election and also President Trumps claim that former president Obama Wiretapped trump tower. Caroline youre in washington, give us more details, good morning. You got it. This is an incredibly important hearing when it comes to the trump administration. The live pictures coming in. You mentioned the wiretapping accusation coming from mr. Trump in a tweet that was back on march 4th. You said president Obama Wiretapped trump tower during the campaign. The head of this committee and Senate Intelligence committee all saying we have the Justice Department records and no evidence to prove that. Thats what james comey, the head of the fbi is being grilled about today. If he says there were no wiretaps thats a huge below for the credibility of the white house blow. Also russian interference, how deep did it go and theres an important legal question too. Was there any collusion with the Trump Campaign . Yesterday on Fox News Sunday the head of the house Intelligence Committee republicans said ill give you a simple answer no, no collusion however the ranking democrat said theres circumstantial evidence that there could have been collusion so james comey getting grilleden that one. We expect him to be forth coming but he does have the option if theres a criminal investigation he could step back and say i cant talk about this at this time. Now, another thing they will be talking about is leaks. President trump has been harping on this for weeks in a tweet about an hour ago saying thats what the committee should focus on, the illegal leaking of classified information. You remember Michael Flynn who got fired and swept up in a wiretap, a legal wiretap of the russian ambassador. He was recorded during that information. All of that is legal. The illegal part is his name was leaked out by someone in the administration and government. So an amazing array of things will be talked about. Theyre just now starting. The head of the committee its going to be an interesting couple of hours on capitol hill. Before you go, i know its early, but what do you anticipate the tone of the questioning will be as we begin this . I think it could be pretty forceful. Democrats have been fired up about this. Theyre still angry at james comey. Remember before the election when he came out and said we are relooking at some emails between clinton about her serve server. Then just before the election he said its the same ones, we arent having a criminal investigation after this at all. So democrats dont like james comey but republicans have been forceful about this too. The wiretapping issue, they dont know where this came from and the evidence that the president has so they are drilling down this and pretty hard too. Youll also see the head of the nsa, testifying today, they want answers from him as well. This is fascinating. The implications are incredible. From washington, thank you. Time is 7 06. Coming up at 8 00, the Senate Judiciary hearing for Supreme Court nominee neil gorsuch will begin. Hes a conservative judge on the 10th Circuit Court of appeals based in denver. His appointment will determine whether the court between conservatives and liberals will become a full court with conservatives in the majority. Democrats vow to black as much as possible and Republican Leaders are not ruling out the possibility of invoking the Nuclear Option so 51 votes are needed to approve the nomination. House Speaker Paul Ryan is open to making changes on the Republican Healthcare bill to provide healthcare to older people who are not yet eligible for medicare. They would see an increase in people yu78s. Revisions would be discussed before thursday. Mot moderate republicans have expressed concerns about the plan to replace the Affordable Care act. Millions of people would lose coverage and people yous in many cases would rise. Today marks two months since inauguration day. Our question is this do you think President Trump is doing . Better than you expected . About what you expected or worse than you expected. Let us know what you think. Take a vote on our twitter page and comment on our Facebook Page. Time is now 7 08. New from overnight, an investigation in concord after police found a woman on the side of a busy road last night about 10 45. The police arent saying much about what happened out there.
